Just scrolling through Bitcoin's price history and it's wild to see where we've been. January 1st prices tell quite a story - we went from $0.30 back in 2011 to nearly $94k just a couple years ago. That's insane growth.
Looking at the bitcoin price movements, we hit $87,850 on January 1st this year, and now in early May we're sitting around $78k. Even with the recent pullback from those January highs, it's still a massive jump from where we were years ago. Remember when Bitcoin was trading under $1k? 2017 was only $980.
The volatility is real - you had $43k on January 1st, 2024, then nearly doubled to $93,958 by the following year. By February 1st this year the market had already started shifting. Crazy to think how much can change in just a few weeks. Either way, the long-term chart shows Bitcoin's been on quite the ride.
